Lets's calculate LCM of 276,1564
2 | 276, 1564 |
2 | 138, 782 |
23 | 69, 391 |
3, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 23 x 3 x 17 = 4692
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4692
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6674/276,5256/1564 is 2/4692
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 276,1564 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(276,1564) = 92
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(276,1564) x common factors =92 x 1 = 92
LCM(276,1564) = ( 276 × 1564 ) / 92
LCM(276,1564) = 431664 / 92
LCM(276,1564) = 4692
